A PRETTY CONCEIT.

The enormous sales of the Waterbury have led firms tyho do no], pare for a stead/ turnover at a legitimate profit to explore the purlieus o! the Continent tor oheap Inferior " tickers "—w do not call them watches—with which 11 'run the Waterbury.' These possess ono virtue only—lhat of showing the dcolera roturu of some 150 per cent, on his outlajlfc That they should keep time is a matter of uo moment, so long as they resemble the Waterbury in outward appearance, style of casing, etc., with sufficient closeness to deceive a careless or unwary purchaser. Firms doing this often say to us" What do we care; we can make five shillings a watch, more on thorn then wo can on yours; and as to keeping time, well, our troubles about that." Buyers requiring reliable .watohos can trust the Waterbury, an<l the public requiring the correct time should see that they get it. • The gouts' or ladies' Waterbury, gold filled or in sterling silver, are handsome, inexpensive, and durable; whilst tho nickel varieties are so well known that they require no further recommendation. It is a pretty conceit for here and there a stray trader to think his imports of tho " Nebuohadnezzar," the " Millenium," the " Gonbimg," or some other Bpeeially titled monstrosity, has any effect on the Waterburj? market, whilst.for every watch ho nervously orders over ono hundred Waterburys aro always afloat for New Zealand. Tho real strength of tho Waterbury lies in its absolute reliability, in othor words its absolute refusal to keep anything but the correct time. We sometimes seo" tickers"-we still bar them any othor title—offered for sale which are really wonderful combinations. They not only eihibit the whole of the oolestial bodies on their facts, but keep time, or profess to ( tell you the state of the money market, the amount of any particulal member's indebedness at Bellamy's, and the name of the nest Bank to reconstruct in Australia, The Waterbury does not do this, It simply keeps correot time and goes on doing so.
